For both parents and kids, it's never too early to start thinking about plans for the summer. Parents want to make sure their children are safe, supervised and engaged in activities that keep their minds and bodies active. Kids just want to make sure they'll have fun.

Whether your child is a budding athlete, artist, scientist or intrepid explorer, day camps offer a convenient, safe, and affordable summer option. Day camps give parents the flexibility of enrolling their children just for the sessions that suit their needs. Programs are offered for a wide variety of age groups, often from preschooler to teen. And best of all, everyone comes home at the end of the day!

Here's a quick, 10-question checklist to get you started when choosing a day camp for your child:

1. Does the camp focus on a specific skill area, or does it offer a broad range of experiences?

2. Can half-day options be combined for a full day of camp?

3. Is early drop-off and late pick-up available?4. Are background checks done on the staff? 5. What kind of training does the staff receive?6. What's the counselor-to-camper ratio?7. What does a typical day look like for a

camper?8. Is there swimming, and are swimmers

tested?9. How does the camp handle emergencies?10. Is financial assistance available?

Be sure to keep your kids involved in the decision-making process. Take them to camp open houses. Let them flip through camp guides. And talk to your friends for recommendations. YMCA of Greater Brandywine has numerous options for your campers (www.ymcagbw.org/camp). The right day camp will give your kids the chance to develop and learn new skills, enjoy nature, experience independence, make new friends and build memories that last a lifetime.

What a Homeowner Needs to KnowWhat is stormwater and why is it a problem?

Stormwater is rainfall that runs off of roofs, driveways, lawns, roads, parking lots, sidewalks, farm fields, and other surfaces created or disturbed by manmade activities. This runoff picks up pollutants (such as dirt, oil, litter, pesticides, fertilizer, etc.) as it flows across these surfaces, and eventually enters local streams. While rainfall is natural, stormwater is manmade.

Large volumes of stormwater overwhelm, erode and pollute local streams, and flood low lying areas. To lessen these destructive stormwater impacts and help ensure any existing problems do not worsen, many municipalities have adopted new stormwater management ordinance standards. These new standards are a key tool in reducing these stormwater impacts, safeguarding properties from flooding and erosion, and protecting streams and local water quality.

Why is stormwater management important?

The purpose of stormwater management is to protect property, infrastructure and streams from destructive stormwater impacts by ensuring rain can be absorbed close to where it falls, thereby reducing the volume of runoff. By controlling stormwater runoff from new impervious and disturbed surfaces on individual properties, we can:

protect downstream propert ies, roads and infrastructure from increased erosion and flooding.

protect water quality in our streams and reservoirs to provide clean water for drinking, businesses, farming, and swimming, and for fish and other aquatic living resources.

Without effective stormwater management, problems caused by too much runoff, erosion and pollutants (such as sediment, nutrients and bacteria) become very difficult and costly for property owners and communities to fix.

How will the updated stormwater standards help reduce these problems?

In decades past, local stormwater management was designed without regard to the cumulative impact of runoff on downstream properties and streams. To address this and the future increase in population and development across watersheds, updated stormwater management ordinance standards were necessary to meet state and federal requirements. The updated standards require new development and redevelopment projects (large and small) to be constructed in a way that maintains or reduces the amount of stormwater that leaves the site; this will help reduce the cumulative impacts of flooding and erosion on downgradient properties and streams. It will also help keep our waters clean that serve as a critical source of public drinking water.

How can stormwater runoff be minimized for a small project?

The first step is to discuss your planned project with your municipal engineer or zoning officer to determine what requirements apply to your project. Then, design your small project with the least amount of impervious surface and the minimum amount of area to be disturbed (or compacted during construction). The third step is to mimic nature by allowing the rain to be absorbed close to where it falls. This is accomplished by installing one or more stormwater best management practices (BMPs) that will capture and absorb the stormwater generated by the proposed project, and minimize any increase in the amount of stormwater runoff flowing off of the property.

What stormwater BMPs can be used for small projects?

Examples of BMPs that are generally suitable for small projects can include features such as infiltration trenches, an attractive rain garden, permeable pavers for patio installations, rain barrels or a cistern, or a rainwater infiltration border along a driveway planted with attractive wildflowers. More than one of these BMPs may be used in combination to address other more significant drainage or stormwater problems on the property.

How should a stormwater BMP be chosen?

Before choosing a BMP, consult with your municipality, as they may prefer one type of BMP or not allow a particular BMP. Homeowners will need to understand the function of the chosen BMP and homeowners will be responsible for completing ongoing inspections and maintenance. Just as a house requires routine inspection and upkeep, so too will your chosen BMP(s). Without proper maintenance these BMPs will not function effectively, or they may stop functioning. A BMP can be costly to repair and its failure will contribute to downstream flooding, erosion and pollution.

Where can I learn more about stormwater BMPs for homeowner projects?The first step is to speak with your municipality to better understand all requirements and limitations regarding small projects. The internet has many excellent resources.

Rain barrels capture roof runoff. With a soaker hose attached, this BMP can also help your garden survive drier periods.

This rain garden helps absorb more stormwater than the mowed lawn that surrounds it. ( p h o t o c r e d i t C h e s t e r - R i d l e y -Crum Watersheds Association)

The best approach to minimize flooding and improve water qualityis to allow rain to be absorbed close to where it falls, reducing stormwater runoff.

Rain Gardens for Clean WaterDuring rainstorms water flows out of downspouts across lawns treated with fertilizer, pesticides, and herbicides, over driveways, walkways, and streets coated

with oil residue, litter, and sediment where it finally flows into stormdrains. The various pollutants that this stormwater has picked up are then discharged into local streams untreated. Our local streams drain into the Delaware River which ultimately flows into the Delaware Estuary, a major source of food and recreation for our region. Pollution from stormwater runoff is the leading cause of degradation and impairment of our streams. Therefore, it is vital that we rethink the ways in which our community handles stormwater runoff if we are to improve the integrity of our water ways.Rain gardens are a proven way to capture overland runoff from your gutters, driveways and walkways and prevent

pollution from entering the storm sewer system and ultimately our streams. Gutters and impervious surfaces can be directed to a rain garden; a depressed garden that acts like a sponge to capture and infiltrate the rain water back into groundwater supplies with the plants and soil naturally filtering out the pollutants. These gardens, planted with native flowers, shrubs and grasses, help to mimic natural conditions that were present b e f o r e d e v e l o p m e n t o c c u r r ed . Additionally, the rush of water that enters a stream during rain events can be greatly reduced by directing the stormwater to a raingarden. This rush of water often causes bank erosion and instream habitat destruction. Rain gardens can soak up to 30% more rain water than lawn areas and increase vital habitat for butterflies and birds.

Vermont Rain Garden Manual: http://www.uvm.edu/seagrant/sites/uvm.edu.seagrant/files/vtraingardenmanual.pdf

Mosquitoes will not be an issue with a rain garden as a properly designed and functioning garden will drain within 24 hours. Mosquitoes need standing stagnant water for several days to complete their lifecycle from egg to adult insect.

Historic SugartownSugartown's General Store

At the corner of Sugartown and Boot Road in Willistown Township, Malvern, you'll find the remarkably intact and lovingly restored Sugartown Store and Worrall House. Thanks to the restoration efforts of Historic Sugartown, Inc., a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization, this village corner looks much the way it did in the late 1800s when it was center of a vibrant farming community.

Sugartown's General Store was originally built in c. 1805 by Joseph Waterman the same time that he built his home and Saddle shop next door. Joseph rented out the store building, and his wife Hannah continued this practice after his death in 1813. In 1822, storekeeper John Moore advertised that he offered "an inventory of dry goods, groceries, liquors, glass, china and Liverpool war, oils, paints, drugs, iron monger, etc." In 1835, Hannah Waterman sold the store to her son Isaac, and his business partner Isaac Powell was named Sugartown's first Post Master. In 1838, the Waterman family sold the store to Garrett Pratt. Pratt served as Post Master and sold his goods on strictly a cash basis, running the store until 1846 when he sold it to Thomas Hutchison for $4,900. Hutchison invested heavily in expanding the store's inventory and must have overextended himself. His store was sold at Sheriff's Sale for $1,735 the following January.

In 1847 Sharpless Worrall purchased the property and opens his store. He and his wife Abigail, both in their mid-thirties, moved to the Waterman's old house with their five children

ranging from 2 - 12 years (and more on the way!) Sharpless was named Post Master, a position he would hold for five years, and then off and on until 1876. In 1851, Worrall worked with other community members to establish the Ivanhoe Lodge #432 of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, and built a third-story addition on the Store to create their meeting space. The community came to rely on the space for other civic meetings and social events. In 1862, Worrall attempts to retire, selling the store to his son Lewis. The store seems to struggle during his proprietorship and closes in 1865. The Worrall's rent the store out for a few years and then reopen it in 1869.

In 1871, Sharpless' wife Abigail notes in her diary that their daughter Hannah was tending the store while Sharpless was at a Lodge meeting. On December 31, 1874, Hannah

Worrall marries Hillery John, and they take over the proprietorship of the General Store. Hillery is named Post Master in 1876. Hillery and Hannah move into the tenant houses to the left of the General Store a couple years later.

The John Day Books paint a vivid picture of community life in Sugartown during the 1880s as friends, neighbors and even seeming adversaries frequented the store. The John's ran the store until Hillery's death in 1904. His son Clyde is named Post Master, and continues to run the store until 1912 when he rents it to a storekeeper by the name of Beeber. Three of the John children - Warel, Clyde, and Marguerite - remain at the family home. Marguerite runs an antique store from the house until 1956. Many local residents still remember her store. Historic Sugartown purchased the property from Beatrice Moore

Newtown Square Public LibraryNewtown Square Public Library Welcomes Suzanne Wasson, Oil Painter, throughout May

Suzanne Wasson spent 28 happy years teaching at the Agnes Irwin School in Rosemont. Upon her retirement, she decided to pursue a lifelong dream to study oil painting and the results of her second career will be showcased this May at the Newtown Square Public Library!

Suzy chose to work in oil because of the vibrancy and richness of the colors, the textures that can be achieved, and the way oils allow you to capture the essence of nature. Her paintings focus on three major subjects Landscapes, Seascapes, and Still Lifes. Each subject engages her in a different way. She elaborated on one of her inspirations:

The sea has always been restorative, and my piece The Big Splash was done in thHawaii during a trip for our 50 wedding anniversary. I remember just sitting there,

in front of the ocean for the entire day it was incredibly beautiful, and I felt so fortunate. When I painted it, I moved into the same meditative space, where distractions melted into the background. Then when I finished, I stepped back, amazed, and said "Did I do that?"

The Big Splash

Peonies Lilacs and Garlic

Suzanne Wasson, Oil Painter

The Big Splash is one of Suzy's larger pieces, and will be exhibited along with landscapes and beautiful still lifes like Tea Roses and Peonies. Suzy enjoys still lifes because they are a wonderful way to discover the beauty of simple objects.

Suzanne supports a variety of charities, including an after school program at Saint Augustine's Academy. A portion of any sale of her paintings goes to SAA. Further information on her artworks is available on her website at http://suzywas.wix.com/paintings, or by emailing her directly at [email protected].

The Friends of the Library know that Suzy's florals, sea, and landscapes will help us all celebrate this season of spring and we welcome you to visit throughout the month of May. The Newtown Square Public Library is located at 201 Bishop Hollow Road, Newtown Square, PA. Call (610) 353-1022, visit our FB page, and website at http://www.newtownlibrary.org

Several exciting and interesting programs have been planned by the Friends of Newtown Library for the next few months. All events below are free and are held at the library:

On April 22, a Garden Talk will be given by Steve Mostardi of Mostardi Nursery in Newtown Square. Come and learn valuable tips …. And bring your questions for Steve to answer. The free program starts at 7pm.

The annual Wine, Cheese, Silent Auction is scheduled for May 15. The silent auction is of new/nearly new items donated by the community…let us know if you have anything to donate. The event starts at 6pm. Registration, by calling in the library, is requested to ensure we have accurate counts.

Spring Safety

It's hard to believe with snow still on the ground, but spring is almost upon us! With the nice weather coming, there are plenty of opportunities to spend time outside with your pooch. While walking, hiking and playing outdoors can lead to great relationship building and training opportunities, there are a few important safety tips to keep in mind this spring. There are both indoor and outdoor risks that can pose a danger to your dog, so taking a few preventative steps can ensure safe adventures. While outside with your pet, keep these few precautions in mind to ensure their safety during the springtime fun.

King of Prussia, PA 19406www.perfect-pooch.com

First, you should always have identification on your pet. Collar embroidery or I.D. tags are the best option and be sure to update your personal information whenever you move or change phone numbers. Your pet may already have a microchip implanted under the skin of their neck, which is a great tool that can link

your pet back to you. However, remember to update it regularly and keep in mind that not every chip operates on the same frequency, which can impede a reunion. Virtually anyone can read a collar tag, but not everyone knows to take a found dog to a shelter or vet for a microchip scan.

When you are out with your dog in your garden or a public park, be aware that many decorative plants and seasonal foliage are poisonous for your pet. Easter decorations and flowers can be especially harmful to your pet, as well, so be sure to steer clear of public decorations and decorate your home with care.

Another, less obvious, plant danger lies in the fertilizers and insecticides many

towns and neighborhoods use to safeguard greenery. Walking through these chemicals can lead to licked paws or minor burns so it's always a good idea to wipe your dog's paws if they've been walking through green spaces.

Along with spring flowers comes springtime pests. If your pooch is not already on a year-round preventative for heartworm, fleas and ticks, now is a good time to talk to your vet about starting a preventative regimen. With the warm weather come the mosquitoes and other pesky critters that can pass on deadly diseases, such as heartworm and Lyme so it's especially important to protect your pet from these small assailants.

Once you find the best product for your pet, be sure to also do regular spot checks for ticks and fleas, especially after a hike or any romp through tall grass. One quick way to distinguish fleas from dirt is to dab any suspected spots with a wet paper towel. Flea dirt will leave a red residue while regular dirt will look like mud. If you suspect your pet has any sort of infestation, schedule an appointment with your vet to rectify the matter so you and your pooch can continue enjoying the spring weather together.

Remember that you are not the only animals outside enjoying the warmer weather. Small, woodland creatures can pose a big bite risk to your pup so only choose well-traveled paths when adventuring outside and try to keep your pup out of any deep brush.

While working to protect your pet outdoors, don't forget about common indoor dangers this spring. With the nice, warm weather, many of us are tempted to open a window or leave the door ajar, but keep in mind that this

window and make sure your storm door or screen door can lock shut. Everyone wants to enjoy the cross breezes, but be sure that you don't end up chasing a pup with three tails to the wind the next time you open a window.

Spring breezes often bring out spring cleaning and minor fixing up around many homes. Most cleaning products are toxic to your pooch so always close all pantry doors and never leave a bucket of cleaning solution unsupervised. One quick drink for your pup can lead to one expensive vet visit for you. With minor construction projects can come all sorts of paraphernalia that your pup would love to explore: paint, nails, staples, and power tools are all important items to keep away from any curious noses and paws!

Lastly, for your safety and theirs, be aware of any outside allergens that might be invading your home! Air conditioning and fans do a great job of circulating cool air but they can also transfer allergens all over your home. Changing your filters regularly and leaving your outdoor gear outside can go a long way in reducing the risk of allergens for you and your pet. Pet wipes can also be very useful in helping clean off your dog before they carry dirt and pollens throughout your home so try to keep some stocked right by your door as a reminder to wipe down any dirty coats or paws.

By keeping just a few safety precautions in mind, you and your pooch can enjoy the spring weather in comfort knowing that you are prepared and ready for any spring time hazards.

Happy Training!

Senior Lifestyles: Fit For LifeAs we grow older, we tend to be less active, our muscles and bones weaken and our cardiovascular and circulatory systems become less efficient. A safe, effective exercise program can help reduce the aches and pains and slow down the progression of conditions associated with aging. For example:

Keeping active helps you maintain your ability to walk, which is important to maintaining your independence.Exercise can improve and maintain balance and posture, reducing your risk of falling.Exercise can improve your strength, endurance and flexibility. It promotes bone strength.Exercise helps maintain muscle mass and tone. Exercise promotes the body's natural process of lubricating joints and lessens joint stiffness and achiness.Stronger muscles can handle more weight and stress protecting your joints.

The benefits of exercising extend beyond promoting physical health. Exercise also has a major effect on

your emotional and mental health by reducing stress and increasing the blood flow to your brain. Over time, the protective benefits of exercise can help slow cognitive decline.

Exercise is important, but sometimes getting started is overwhelming and maintaining a program that keeps you interested is difficult. The Surrey Fitness Center in Devon offers a great solution. With a welcoming

environment and encouraging staff, beginners and regulars alike will stay motivated. The center is located in Surrey's new Center for Healthy Living and includes new treadmills, an elliptical machine and recumbent bikes. Surrey's personal trainer will help you develop a plan that is right for you at no charge. The center is exclusively for adults 55 and older. For more information please call Nicole at 610-647-9172.
